NHL Square Plays Update

NHL Square Plays Update

NHL Square Plays are now 33-32 for the season which is good for 50.8 percent. While this percentage would not be high enough to turn a profit betting against the spread in football or basketball, it can be profitable taking underdogs in hockey. NHL Square Plays have won 12.6 units this season while winning only one more game than they have lost.

Many bettors struggle with this betting philosophy, because they want to watch their bet win more often than not. While having a high winning percentage is nice, the most important thing in sports betting is units won. It may be tough to grind out winning 45% of underdogs, but it is a better proposition than winning 55% of heavy favorites.
